For what it’s worth.
When I was on first year pay, (including three months of training pay)I grossed 80K on first year pay. I live in base and did zero premium my first year.
I also was able to get two months of a build up line after training. I credited around 110 hours each of those months which helped in making some extra cash.

Before everyone gets their hopes up for the first year pay-
My Gross pay was around 55K in 2019 and I did maybe two premium (Xlist) flying events and also had one month after training a 100 hr line. So I’m not sure if everybody is able to get to 80K in the first year.

It wasn’t to hard for me. I was in a junior based and held a line after 6 months of reserve.
I should also add I didn’t get my first W2 until 3 months after my first year was over.

True, however it was still my first full calendar year. With the hiring we are doing now, I can’t imagine reserve would be longer then 6-9 months at a junior base.
